Replacing the Lamp

The life span of the projection lamp is about 4,000 hours if Power

Consumption in the Settings menu is Normal (default), and 5,000

hours if this setting is ECO. See page 88 to check the lamp usage.

It is time to replace the lamp when:

The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.

The message Replace the lamp appears on the screen and the

Lamp light flashes orange. To maintain projector brightness

and image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible.

note

Turn off this product when

not in use to prolong the life

of the projector.

You may also need to replace the lamp if the Lamp light flashes

red. See page 93.

Contact your dealer or call Epson at 800-GO-EPSON

(800-463-7766). Request part number V13H010L58.

Follow these steps to replace the lamp:

1. Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.

2. Let the projector cool for at least an hour (if it has been on). The

lamp is extremely hot immediately after use.

3. Loosen the lamp cover screw (you cannot remove it). Then slide

the lamp cover off.

warning

Let the lamp cool fully

before replacing it.

In the unlikely event that

the lamp has broken, small

glass fragments may be

present and should be

removed carefully to avoid

injury. If the projector has

been installed on the ceiling,

you should stand to the side

of the lamp cover, not

underneath it.

If the lamp is used after the

replacement period has

passed, the possibility that

the lamp may break

increases. When a lamp

replacement message

appears, replace the lamp

with a new one as soon as

possible, even if it is still

working.
